@rcgldr: from the last paragraph, it's pretty clear they mean multi-core, not SIMD. And not superscalar CPUs exploiting ILP. (See Why dependency in a loop iteration can't be executed together with the previous one and this Q&A for a single core exploiting instruction-level parallelism). — Peter Cordes 1 min ago

Welcome to SO. Stack Overflow is a question and answer page for professional and enthusiastic programmers. Add your own code to your question. You are expected to show at least the amount of research you have put into solving this question yourself. — Cyrus 47 secs ago

Admittedly software recommendations are off topic for Stack Overflow, but you might want to look into software like Deep Freeze, which resets any computer it's installed on to a predefined image. — SomethingDark 16 secs ago

Well, as I've said it's legacy code, and I am new into jpa, so I supposed serious senior programmers can't write "utterly dumb" code, so it's me who don't get it. — ValerianTi 38 secs ago

I want parent category in a bolded way and then its child category within it. like i have parent category Software Engineering, and then we want all of the child categories which has value Software engineering and it should come inside bolded software engineering field. — danish.rizvi 26 secs ago

@ShaikhTayab The error outside the log function is an expected behaviour, as you don't know when the function will be called. Anything called outside is not guaranteed to be defined, when exactly is called you can never know (when twtich finishes some unknown background tasks). Anyway if you're struggling with the callback flow/logic open another question (Like, how to understand that code for PHP programmers) and I'll answer with OOP examples if you desire, comments are not meant to be sub-threads. — SigmaSoldier 15 secs ago

I might add that the above is for creating a general tool etc. In terms of identifying dependencies in your own code, good software engineering practices such as clearly identifying required packages (which, unlike matlab, octave does anyway by requiring such packages to be visibly loaded in code), and wrapping any similarly providing custom dependencies as packages / namespaces, or at least mentioning them in comments in the file itself, etc. — Tasos Papastylianou 48 secs ago

@PanagiotisKanavos: Lol I am not a programmer by intention but need to do this for my bread lol. Coz I dont understand programming, I am someone who manages programmers like you well but unfortunately I never get such a role in the market even though I am born and excellent in those skills, thats why afraid to create console app to test these. I am thinking, after all I am doing all these shits throughout my life only for bread and nothing else as its not my passion or what I wanted to do ever :) I manage programmers well in my capability even as a fresher I was. — Learner 27 secs ago

If you're "a small team" with no software engineers, this is hopeless. If your game isn't popular, nobody will be motivated to cheat. If your game is popular, you're up against dozens if not hundreds of motivated hobbyists ready to circumvent any approach you take to detecting cheating. There's a reason that major game developers and dedicated developers of anti-cheating software have to invest vast amounts of resources to stay ahead (and that includes human oversight; automation is by no means enough). — Jeroen Mostert 1 min ago

No. thank you! I did not know that this was necessary. As I say i am not an expert when it comes to error handling. If you want, I accept your hint as answer or I will delete the question if it is considered not interesting for other programmers. — aldorado 31 secs ago

Some programmers solve this problem by implementing the database connection layer as singleton class. — Raymond Nijland 18 secs ago

please add some explaination. Providing only the code is a good recipe to grow cargo cult programmers. Eg why does OPs code not work? — user463035818 8 secs ago

Consider also the #1 solution to every problem in software engineering (and also the #1 cause): add more layers. If Validator is now holding methods/state that would be really convenient to have available externally, maybe there should be more classes that allow us to duplicate/replicate the handy things that it does without needing to have, or be, an instance of Validator, and those get public interfaces that Validator (and any other interested party) can use. In other words, extract useful stuff to other classes and make Validator more of a facade. — Jeroen Mostert 35 secs ago

Maybe you should ask on software recommendations... I'm no expert on this — user489872 35 secs ago

Questions that ask "where do I start?" are typically too broad and are not a good fit for this site. People have their own method for approaching the problem and because of this there cannot be a correct answer. Give a good read over Where to Start and edit your post. — gre_gor 38 secs ago

@Leon Actually, comments are not without harm. Every time they're used, their value has to be weighed up against their cost. Their main cost is the risk of going out-of-sync from the code, and misdirecting readers. " A newer dev will have even less chance of getting it. That's the whole point of documentation." That's not actually the case. Perhaps on an education post like this, that might be a good idea, but in general, comments are not there to "dumb down" the code for newer programmers — Alexander 20 secs ago

@FrançoisAndrieux, that documentation is confused. They have no business talking about C runtime emulation of POSIX signals in the docs for the console API. Windows has no such thing as signals. People are confused enough about this. They're not helping matters. They should confine themselves to discussing the console control events and link to the CRT signal docs for C/C++ programmers that use its emulation of POSIX signals (based on a console control handler and an exception handler). — eryksun 7 secs ago

First off, I don't think mocking someones English on a site like this is appropriate. Aside from that, I do not believe that the comments in the embellished example serve to improve readability to someone even remotely familiar with streams, nor does the useless return variable. I would consider both noise if I encountered them in actual code. With more experience with streams under my belt, i would today opt to keep the original newlines for readability. Nobody is perfect. I aimed to provide both an example that was explicit for new programmers as well as one that was realistic. — Torque 39 secs ago

In terms of readability, I don't see the problem here. it seems fairly clear what you're trying to accomplish, though I would add some documentation notes at the top of the file, indicating the desired function in readable human language. As for efficiency, I'm not sure there is a better approach: I haven't done that research. However, I have been told by professors and more experienced programmers "DON'T PRE-OPTIMIZE Or, (Optimization is the root of almost all evil.)[stackoverflow.com/questions/385506/… — David Culbreth 6 secs ago
